Contentstack is great for building flexible marketing-focused stories and landing pages without developer needs (post-setup). As an e-commerce platform out of the box, it requires some thoughtful customization and is easy to create webs of references or otherwise messy data structures.
We needed to future-proof the next iteration of our website and be able to have non-website specialists contribute to uploading content. With Contentstack, we're able to really narrow down the user access and approval flows.
Pros
User roles and approval flows
Customisation
Easy user-friendly interface
Cons
Notification or recognition of duplicate images
Likelihood to Recommend
It's great for large companies with multiple brands and content across multiple sites.
While it's a great product, it's probably overkill if you're a smaller company with only one main website. However, it is future-proofing even if you have just one site.

We use Contentstack to create and localize landingpages for our webshops. We also use it to handle SEO texts and content elements on our commerce pages like PDP, Basket & Check-Out. Other than that, we use it to power our blog. We use scheduled publishing a lot to be able to plan our work, and we make content components that can handle structured content in order to automate graphical elements on the sites.
Pros
Flexible & Modular Content Models.
Scheduled Publishing.
Automation Hub.
3rd Party Connectors.
Cons
Very low rate limits on bulk-publishing entries & assets (10 entries in 10 locales limit).
Error messages that aren't meaningful to users,
Limits on number of asset folders.
No content types supporting building a website navigation.

Contentstack is great at serving content to JAMstack frontends. Contentstack could improve the usability of the content editors, as well as the commercial model surrounding users. As content can be all of landing pages, SEO texts, assets, campaign pages, legal texts, and more, a lot of users need to access Contentstack just a little bit - but Contentstack charges per user rather than per concurrent user - which becomes quite expensive.
